Sentinel incidence angle and pass

Hi @SudiParwata, the corner reflector will reflect in the same polarisation as it receives. So for S1 VH mode, the SAR transmits in V polarisation and receive in H polarisation. In this case the CR reflected polarisation is V but the SAR itself will only detect RF signals in H polarisation. Thus no signal will be received from the CR.

Dear @peter.meadows
Oh yeah, I forgot the basic things about polarization concept.
Thank you very much for your explanation.
Thanks also your detail and very clear about:

  1. How to use above-heaven
  2. Base angle
  3. Azimuth angle

Regards,
